The Bhatts, Mukesh and Mahesh Bhatt are becoming ready for what promises to be one of the crucial lavish celebrations ever seen within the Indian entertainment industry.
To celebrate 25 years of existence of the Bhatts' banner Vishesh Films, the Bhatts are planning a jamboree designed just like the opening of Mera Naam Joker where the entire individuals who made a difference to the protagonist's life were invited under the similar roof.
Laughs Mukesh Bhatt joyously, "Yes, Jeena yahan marna yahan indeed. On June 5, Vishesh Films completed 25 years. We're planning an excessively big celebration cum party where we wish all those who've ever been related to Vishesh Films to come back".
While Mukesh was reluctant to show more details, one came to understand from sources that the party would read like a who's who of the entertainment industry.
Says our source, "Everyone from Mr. Bachchan to Emraan Hashmi can be personally invited. The Bhatts have never believed in a show of strength. They've quietly gone and introduced one of the crucial biggest talent within the industry. But this time when it is the banner's silver jubilee, the Bhatts are within the mood for self-congratulation."
We hear there'll be a parade of talent on the party to be held within the last week of May. Says our source, "THE ENTIRE actors from Rahul Roy and Anu Aggarwal in Aashiqui to Esha Gupta within the forthcoming Jannat 2, and all of the directors from Vikram Bhatt in Fareb to Vishal Mahadkar in Blood Money could be called on stage."
Says Mukesh, "25 years and 58 films, not bad, huh? We wish to share the instant with all the industry and particularly with all of the actors, directors, technicians and music directors whom we've introduced."
Adds Mahesh Bhatt, "25 years and it is time to contemplate one's impact at the world. I'd this time make an exception and perform a little retrospection regardless of my personal motto: never look back. However the fact of the problem is, it's for others to make a good assessment of our journey."
Mukesh Bhatt proudly reveals that is the 84th year within the Hindi film industry for the Bhatt clan. My father Nanabhai Bhatt began directing films within the silent era in 1928. He went from the silent to the talkies era. Then I and my brother have produced an aggregate of nearly 70 films. Now in 2012, we're able to release our first 3D film Raaz 3 and mind you, it's not a pretend 3D film. We have not converted a 2D film into 3D. We shot the film within the 3D format. That is the 25th year of Vishesh Films. Grant us the luxurious of feeling proud. The Bhatts was around for 84 of the 100 years of Indian cinema's existence. No film family can claim this achievement."
Happily for the Bhatts, Mukesh's son Vishesh makes his directorial debut with Murder 3 this year.
Mukesh thinks Randeep and Sara Loren would expend the screen when the film releases."Their chemistry needs to be seen to be believed. I left the selection of heroine completely to my son Vishesh who makes his directorial debut in Murder 3. Fortunately, he has a mind of his own which he uses judiciously. The primary shock he gave me was after I read his script. It was unlike anything our banner or for that matter, anything tried by Hindi cinema before. The second one shock Vishesh gave me was when he announced he wanted Randeep and never Emraan for the male lead. Considering Emmy is our own inhouse hero it was really surprising. But then we have to get the banner out of a straitjacket. We want fresh talent that might steer Vishesh Films into new directions. No point in doing our trademark films time and again. When audiences see what my son has done in Murder 3, they are going to be shocked beyond belief."
